The impression is mainly one of morphing  resonance,   like someone manoeuvring an equalizer while a sequence of consecutive  drones   is unfolding. A chain of pretty static visions, some of them in fact   engrossing, rarely presenting truly shocking elements yet effective,  at least   in spurts. Still, the compositional effort doesn\u2019t appear extreme;  this will   probably determine a filing in the jam-packed folders of \u201cgood but not   really memorable\u201d near-minimalism, with the exception of \u201cString 6\u201d  and   \u201cString 7\u201d, whose impressive bottomless rumbles and subsonic purrs are   something to be heard.
